TV composer Mike Post recalls trying to talk Steven Bochco out of doing Cop Rock (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/why-steven-bochco-pursued-cop-rock-short-lived-musical-drama-series-1099453)
Post -- who helped create the theme songs for Law & Order, The A-Team, The Rockford Files, NYPD Blue, Quantum Leap and Hill Street Blues -- remembered Bochco pitching him on the 1990 ABC singing cops series. "Don't" do it, Post recalls telling Bochco. "'No, Steven, I’m telling you this is too hard. This is too f*cking hard!' I said to him, 'America is not ready for the cops singing. They’re not ready for that.'" Reflecting on his work on Cop Rock, Post says: "It was a ballbuster, but in weird ways I was proud of it. People either loved it or hated it."

I remember when this show first premiered on tv. Like most people, I couldn't get past the first episode. Recently I actually found some clips on YouTube and laughed out loud at how bad this show is, but I ordered the entire series on DVD. There's something very entertaining about watching this train wreck. Just when you think it can't get any worse, they do another song. LOL.
